Free VoiP? Jabber or Google Talk?

I don't understand whether Jabber or Google Talk provide free VoiP or not. What exactly do they provide in terms of VoiP (not interested in text msgs)





just wondering cause I read this on wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Talk





On December 15, 2005, Google released libjingle, a C++ library to implement Jingle, "a set of extensions to the IETF's Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP) for use in voice over IP (VoIP), video, and other peer-to-peer multimedia sessions.





...so what does that mean, what does Google (of Jabber) provide in terms of (free or not) VoiP?

Free VoiP? Jabber or Google Talk?
Jabber is merely a protocol for text chat (not your interest)...





Google Talk on the other hand is a voice chat application program, much like Yahoo Messenger, that provides free calls to other GTalk clients (or at least with clients that are compatible with GTalk ). It uses the Google's open source libjingle library (http://code.google.com/apis/talk/index.h... to provide the VoIP features.
Reply:Google Talk is absolutely free to use. I've been using it for about 2 years now. It works very good. It even works well over dial-up connections (very important for dial-up users).
